Taste Testing: Domino’s Pizza Specialty Chicken

By: Finance Foodie

A few weeks ago, Domino’s Pizza launched a much buzzed about new menu item - the Specialty Chicken, its first new menu item since Handmade Pan Pizza in September 2012. Domino's pizza chefs took chicken to a whole new level by using toppings, sauces and cheeses, and layering them over our boneless chicken to create four unique flavors of Specialty Chicken. The four flavors are: Crispy Bacon & Tomato, Spicy Jalapeno-Pineapple, Classic Hot Buffalo and Sweet BBQ Bacon.

Highly intrigued, I took the Sweet BBQ Bacon Specialty Chicken for a test drive. And guess what? It was surprisingly and intriguingly good! Twelve little bites of boneless white meat chicken, topped with sweet and smoky BBQ sauce, a blend of cheese made with mozzarella and cheddar, and crispy bacon - think of it as BBQ bacon pizza with a baked chicken crust. Although it was smaller than I expected, each chicken bite packs in a lot of flavor. And at ~600 calories for the entire "pizza", it should be consumed modestly but it certainly won't break the daily calorie bank.

Specialty Chicken is available as part of its $5.99 mix and match deal - got to dominos.com to order from your local store.
